Abstract: An electrode arrangement for applying electrical signals to skin of an animal comprising a flexible electrically non-conductive substrate, at least one electrode provided on a first surface of the substrate for applying electrical signals to the skin when placed on the skin, at least one connector connected to a respective electrode for providing electrical signals to the respective electrode and an electrically non-conductive sealing arrangement connected to the substrate for sealing the substrate and the skin to prevent ingress of moisture to the at least one electrode and to the at least one connector at the connection to the respective electrode. The or each electrode comprises a plurality of spaced electrically conductive elements to allow flexion of the electrode arrangement and electrically conductive material between the plurality of spaced electrically conductive elements to form a two-dimensional electrically conductive path across at least a portion of the first surface of the substrate.

Abstract: Computer apparatus comprising a central computer having a data input port, means connecting two or more remote chord keyboards to the input port, and means for identifying with each respective keyboard alpha-numeric and like character data and command instructions generated by operation thereof and received through the input port; the central computer is programmed to process and combine the character data from the keyboards in accordance with the commands and to output resultant information for display in common by video and/or audio display means. In a preferred embodiment key-operated switches incorporated in each remote chord keyboard are connected in an R-2R resistive ladder network so that operation thereof either singly or in combinations of two to all will produce ratiometric changes in an analog output voltage that uniquely varies as the binary weighting of the operated switch or switch combination.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an electrical keyboard having five keys arranged conveniently for the fingers of an operators hand, a memory to store the signals from each key, logic circuit to instruct said stored data after release of the last of said keys and an encoder to receive said stored signals and produce electrical output signals corresponding to readable characters; each character signal requiring a single operation of a unique combination of said input keys for production of said signal.
